1. Tennessee has been mentioned with Giddens, Minnie and Osetkowski in the last week or so, where would you rank their interest in those 3 guys? All would have to sit out a year as well.
2. Where do things stand with Holt, I know you last had said there was no offer, but if they bring him in on an OV you would have to think there's likely an offer coming? Would they take his commitment while he was on an OV if it was in the next couple weeks?
3. Yurtseven throws a curveball into this, I think most realize there's a spot that's gonna open, but outside of that there doesn't look to be attrition coming. Can the staff take say Holt or one of the guys listed in 1, and find room for Yurtseven? Doesn't seem as though they could hold those guys off until June when Yurtseven is likely to decide.
4. On making room, it's likely just a case that he's from right outside Knoxville, but Jordan Bowden hasn't OV'd. Is there something to that in that in the case Tennessee needs room for Yurtseven the likeliest route could be Bowden being a walk on for a year? Not saying that's at all likely, but just looking at possibilities on how the numbers could work themselves out.
5. O/U on additions to the current roster...1.5?
6. Based on the current roster what would you say the starting 5 would be? Top 3 off the bench?
7. With 2017 likely being a very small class, do you think the staff looks to redshirt at least one member of the 2016 class?
8. Do you think it's fair to say Barnes & Co. are looking at year 3 as the big jump? If they're looking into transfers who have to sit, and seemingly are bringing along and developing guys they've recruited, it would appear to me like Year 3 is the one where fans can look towards for some hope on a NCAAT appearance.
9. If Tee Higgins was a basketball recruit where do you think he would be ranked?
10. Have you heard anything on Stokes lately, if he plans to stick with basketball or switch to football?
Bonus Question:
Gun to your head, how long is Rick Barnes the head coach at Tennessee?
